i'm honestly not trying to be mean here. I'm sure i should tell you the whole story before voicing my opinion, eh?
okay, here we go:
(i'm not using anyone's real names, but i am "Ginger".)
Ginger asked her cousin, Liz, to go to church with her, so she said yes. then, her friends, Belinda and Ray went with her. During church, Liz gave her life back to Christ. She was all smily and happy.
Then, they got to Ginger's house, and Belinda and Ray left, giving Liz the chance to speak freely, in which she said, "I really like Blake."
Ginger shrugged it off as, "Okay, you like him. Great."
But, it began to progress.
Liz told everyone that God told her to be with Ray. Ray prayed about it, but felt that God wasn't drawing her to him in that way. Maybe he was supposed to keep pulling her forward. But, she wouldn't recognize that. Everytime she was with him, she'd try to scoot closer, to be in his arms, but he didn't want that.
So, one Sunday, they were sitting in church, Ginger beside her father on the pew in front of Ray and Liz. Liz had her feet in the pew, her face in her knees, pouting because Ray was paying more attention to God than her.
Ginger told Ray to come join her on the front pew, but Liz followed and kept her face in her knees. Ginger felt the sudden urge to smack Liz, so, she wrote her a note:
Ginger: You do realize we're in church, right?
Liz: Yeah, I'm praying.
Ginger: You look sad.
Liz: I am.
Ginger: Well, you're hindering people.
Liz: Sorry.
So, Liz acts normally until they get back to Ginger's house. Then, Liz and Ray lay on Ginger's bed, on the computer. then, Ray gets up and moves into the closet, praying to God about some guidance. Liz follows >:
Ray walks into Ginger's room once again.
Ginger watches as Liz begins to gather her things to leave, crying. (drama queen.)
So, my opinion on this? :
I honestly don't think God intended for us to have relationships unless we were ready to be married. they're fifteen, i don't think they'll be marrying anytime soon.
So, God probably wants them to focus on HIM and not each other, Liz.
I think Ray is trying to keep focused, but Liz is becoming an issue with her poutiness.
This whole situation is slowly making me furious. Bleh.

the meaning of my blog name :)
Okay, so I'm a huge Jesus Freak. If you can't tell that already.
So, my name is Drop Dead Bekah, which i got Off the movie, Drop Dead Fred, but I've been thinking.
And if we want God, we have to die to our flesh, correct?
well, DROPDEADFLESH. which, i replaced FLESH with BEKAH. but, you get the picture.
i just thought i'd tell you in case you wanted to know.

wow.
so, i haven't wrote anything in a while. lol.
this is the last ten days before school starts and guess what?
ANOTHER NEW SCHOOL. Sylvania High :) woooo.
but, i thought i'd fill you in on a little revelation i had.
Here Goes.
So, i'm sitting in my room, listening to christian music thinking, "What is up with me? I hate being in a bad mood."
Then, i look on facebook and see a link my dad posted. and it's a video from "The Passion of The Christ" and I never really, fully understood it, but i watched the video and felt like squalling.
The thing is, sometimes people feel like they mean nothing and (this may sound stupid) but, for someone to love you so much that they'd die for you. I've certainly felt that way, but of course, i'm a girl. haha.
but, anyways. I was thinking and
Why am I so lazy? I can't even put the computer away or turn the television off for ten minutes while i read my bible!
Jesus Lived his ENTIRE life worshipping and doing miracles. And don't even tell me it was because he was God's son.
because, if we're married to Jesus, we're also sons and daughters of God, aren't we? :)
and I was thinking, Jesus wasn't lazy. He was beaten. A crown of thorns was placed on his head. Then, he carried his cross to the hill! and you know what? HE PRAISED GOD THE WHOLE TIME!
and we get mad and say things like, "I swear to God." or something like that, but if you really think about it, it's kind of like using God's name in vain.
and Another thing:
If Jesus is God's son and he can do miracles and has those powers, and we're married to Jesus, doesn't that give US the right to do miracles and have those powers?
And if Jesus is the son of God and he can speak things into existance, and we're married to Jesus, doesn't that give US the power to speak things into existance?
Think About It.
Well, I just thought I'd share :]
byebye.
